The most comical line from the Reuters post is as follows:

The researchers hooked thermometers to the scrotums of 29 young men who were balancing a laptop on their knees.

Priceless. There you have it men. The next time you want to plop that notebook down on your lap, think twice, and remember… you could be microwaving your man-friends.
Priceless.

Alls I know is that when I go to bed tonight I'm duct-taping a laptop over my frijoles. It's like a simple, easy vasectomy. Woohaa!
